Life as a Jones

Keeping up with the Joneses

Dianne met Max when they were assigned an instrument locker to share in the music building at Ball State in the Fall of 1966. The two became fast acquaintances and as time went on, Max was able to persuade her that he should be the love of her life. On July 13, 1968, Dianne and Max were married at College Avenue Methodist Church in Muncie, with Max’s father, John Paul, officiating.

Dianne and Max approached life as a team, whether it was music, family or community. Together, they were members of the United Methodist Church for her entire life.

Over the years in Lafayette, Dianne made many close friends through the Purdue Women’s Club and maintained an active social calendar with the Green Plate Society, Concord Eastside’s Best and the Directors Dinner Bunch. She loved eating out with Max and all of their friends, as she happily boasted achieving a lifetime goal of never having baked a pie!
